L’Arche Atlanta hosts CONNEXIONS to gather together friends with and without disabilities around shared interests. CONNEXIONS groups are a great way to meet new people, try something new, or do more of what you love. Currently, our CONNEXIONS groups are held virtually, on Zoom. All groups are free to join, though some require pre-registration. See below for information on each group.
CONNEXIONS groups are led by Becca Van Galder. If you have questions about any group, please contact Becca at becca@larcheatlanta.org.
L'Arche Atlanta also offers Community Events, where our larger community gets together to celebrate and have fun. You can see our upcoming community events here.

Contact Becca@LArcheAtlanta.org.
This workshop is free, but limited to the first 20 people to sign up. If a lack of art supplies are a barrier, we can help provide them, just ask Becca!

Story Weavers Workshop -- Coming in November!
Story Weavers is a guided creative writing gathering offered in partnership with Cow Tipping Press that introduces participants to poetry, drama, fiction, and more! We meet on Zoom for two hours each week, for five weeks, to write and connect with one another. The classes are tons of fun and are designed to be inclusive of all people who use words to communicate: no writing abilities or experience necessary. The next class will meet in November. At the end of the semester, the classes' work will be included in a book; you will get a copy and it will be available for sell on Amazon! Let Becca (Becca@LArcheAtlanta.org) know if you are interested!
The book written by the authors in our March Story Weaver's class is available on Amazon now!
